The latest tramp juice

Nobody volunteered…a dramatic re-enactment.

The location was decreed by the GM in the absence of the Hare Raiser and Hare as Plod’s Pagoda II, Nai Chung bus terminus, Sap Sei Heung.

Plod: collected a damp WhySoSyria from the Sai Kung kindergarten and drove at a sedate speed to the Start only to realise that he had forgotten flour and chalk and only had 1/2 a bog roll in his car survival kit along with machete, Glock 23, kukri and space blanket. What to do??

WhySoSyria: speechless after sedate ride to start.

Stingray: No worries, I always keep chalk, flour and bog roll in my boot; produces soggy shopping bag (biodegradable) with 360 bits of broken chalk and a 1/4 bag of self-raising from Harrods.

Eunuch: arriving with 240 cans of assorted beer and softies flying around loose in his boot and 1/3 bag of ice and a spaced out Mango clutching the grab handles, Eunuch not being a sedate driver like the GM.

Plod eventually encounters a lonely Mango returning from where he had doubled back on the out trail. “OK…great. I completely made a cock-up of the trail…leaving a very upset Stingray and a remarkably happy Eunuch…”

Hare No 4 Plod: buggers off leaving Mango to round up the pack and lays a stimulating and well laid trail over footbridges and through villages back to the start.

The circle: with Mango claiming to be off booze due to ulcers and everyone else driving, WhySoSyria was designated Universal Lookalike and had to drink all 6 cans of warm, fizzy Skol down downs. “The best part of last night’s ‘run’ was the stimulating post-circle discussions on religion, masturbation and Stingray’s Penguins…”
